Music company Gratitude Sound, headquartered in Boston, is expanding its national footprint to the West Coast with the opening of an office in Los Angeles. The announcement was made by Bryan Hinkley, founder, Gratitude Sound.
L.A.-based Scott Feldman is now the face of Gratitude Sound West. As producer, he will pursue new clientele across the film, TV, and advertising industries for the company. He will also work with emerging musicians and songwriters for licensing representation.
Gratitude regularly composes and produces original music for agencies, production companies, and direct to brands. The company’s prominent client base has included such brands as Reebok, Dunkin’ Donuts, GMC, and Planet Fitness. Most recently, Gratitude created music for Simple Mobile (Hill Holliday), Gulf States Toyota (MMB), and Wrangler Jeans (Toth+Co).
“After a good amount of consideration, red-eye flights, and getting the chance to know and work with Scott, it became clear to me that now was the perfect time for us to establish a presence on the West Coast,” said Hinkley. “We have a musical style that’s organic and unique, and there is a great deal of opportunity for our services in L.A. Obviously, there’s a healthy amount of competition there as well, but I truly believe that once potential clients know more about us, our music will become highly sought after.”
Feldman is a 10-year veteran of L.A.’s storied music scene. His entry point was as the assistant to the composer and music supervisor of FX’s hit show Sons of Anarchy. Shortly after his tenure with that series, Feldman created his own music company, Darkbloom Productions, to house projects, ranging from composition and production, to musical direction and artist development.
Feldman’s work and collaborations have resulted in placements of his own music with ABC, NBC, TNT, Showtime and a host of other media outlets.
